Splinter doesn't work with Selenium 4.0

See original GitHub issue

Selenium 4.0.0 was just released. With the latest version there are apparently some API changes that Splinter doesn’t handle well.

Our issue was TypeError: __init__() got an unexpected keyword argument 'timeout' on https://github.com/cobrateam/splinter/blob/253a6f21699a60651943bac11cf87a24da4d5a81/splinter/driver/webdriver/firefox.py#L71

@blaise-io 0.16.0’s release pins selenium 3 in order to prevent dependency conflicts, it has nothing to do with getting selenium 4 to work.

Selenium 4 compatibility is coming soon-ish.
